September book groups

Not hitting the textbooks this fall? How about joining one of the library’s book groups? From mysteries to politics, Spanish to fiction, to beer and books at The Tap Room, we’ve got you covered. Join us to discuss this month's fiction book group selection, "Salvage the Bones," on September 13th. 2011 National Book Award winner Jesmyn Ward's pulsing novel reverberates with palpable tension as Hurricane Katrina moves closer and closer to insinuating itself into the lives of one Mississippi family. Like others without the resources to evacuate, they decide to hunker down to wait it out. What makes this novel even more gripping is that Ward is a Katrina survivor.
